"Your father once killed the Yama Emperor of the Underworld. A son must pay for his father's debt. Follow me to Hell, and I'll return your freedom after 100,000 years," the Corpse Sovereign said calmly, but his tone was unquestionable.
But what answered him was a murderous intent that came from the Nine Heavens!
Boom!
Suddenly, the sound of heaven and earth shattering rang out. A black shadow tore through the sky and shook the universe.
It was a spear!
As deep as an abyss, as powerful as the mountains and seas, it shot out like lightning. The spear was still in mid-air, but it already shattered the heavens and earth.
As soon as it appeared, it became the most powerful existence in the world, completely suppressing the auras of the three ancient sovereigns present, demonstrating to the world what it truly meant to be 'supreme'.
"This … whose spear is this?"
Before everyone could think too much, the spear arrived before the Stone Sovereign at an extreme speed.
The latter was arrogant just a moment ago, but now he was terrified, feeling that he was at the end of his rope.
This was because the pressure that the black spear gave him was too great for others to imagine.
He naturally would not sit and wait for death. He subconsciously raised the divine bow in his hand.
Weng!
The instant the Corpse Sovereign drew the bow, a gate of Hell opened before him, and then a black arrow shot out.
This was not an ordinary arrow, but a manifestation of the supreme mystery of the Law of Death. Even a Sub-Emperor would be turned into pus and blood if touched by it, and die suddenly.
Apart from cultivators, Mystical Abilities and treasures that came into contact with it could not escape the danger of being corroded.
But the result of the collision this time was unbelievable.
Crack!
The divine bow broke directly. The black spear shattered the arrow of death, pierced through the gate of Hell, broke the divine bow, and rushed through the body of the Corpse Sovereign.
It was invincible and indestructible.
The tip of the spear was surrounded by a supreme mystery of piercing, and there was nothing in the world that could not be pierced!
The Corpse Sovereign could not block it at all. With a scream, his blood splattered as he was pierced by the spear.
The thick and long spear penetrated diagonally, piercing through his left chest, and then ruthlessly nailed him to the ground.
Everyone was dumbfounded!
This was an ancient sovereign, yet he was nailed to death by a spear without any resistance.
Everything happened too quickly. In the blink of an eye, the battle was already over.
The Corpse Sovereign was forcefully suppressed, and almost had no resistance. Even his sovereign weapon was destroyed.
At this moment, he didn't even know who had attacked him.
Everyone instinctively raised their heads and looked in the direction of the spear, only to see a mountainous figure descending from the starry sky.
"Nine Dragons Coffin Pulling!"
Ye Fan's mind trembled. Nine black dragons pulled a huge bronze coffin over. On top of the coffin, a black-armored knight stood silently.
His mount was a malevolent ancient beast. Its entire body was covered in armor, and its eyes were like those of an ancient vicious king. Divine flames danced around its four hooves.
Just as everyone was watching, a man and a horse suddenly leapt up from the giant coffin like a god of war. Their hooves shook the universe as they stomped down on the Corpse Emperor who was nailed to the ground.
"Ah …"
"This is too much!"
The Corpse Emperor was furious. He roared towards the sky and raised the cracked divine bow in his hands. He condensed a blood arrow with his own imperial blood and nocked the arrow. Then, with a release of his fingers, the arrow exploded outwards.
Wherever the blood arrow passed, the void instantly turned the color of blood. Death and evil spirits descended, turning the place into a living hell.
Each zhang represented a layer of hell. A mere eighteen zhang represented eighteen layers of hell!
With such power, the entire Jade Lake Forbidden Area could be buried.
However, the black-armored knight was cold and emotionless. The ancient beast trampled the sky, its hooves like thunder. It was as if an ancient god of war had come from the past.
The Corpse Emperor's Blood God Arrow and the eighteen layers of hell were all trampled.
The Big Dipper Star shook as well. One man and one mount vividly displayed the word 'tyrannical', telling the world what it meant to truly be invincible against thousands of enemies.
Boom!
The iron hooves landed on the ground, blood splashed everywhere, and the Corpse Emperor's body shattered.
An ancient emperor fell in a pool of blood just like that. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive. He had been suppressed from beginning to end.
It was like a god crushing an ant.
He had been angry, he had resisted, he had struggled, but it was useless. Those who deserved to die would eventually die.
The Jade Lake Forbidden Area was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
The Corpse Emperor's tyrannical body was shattered as if it had been crushed by a millstone. Blood and flesh mixed together, making people's scalps tingle. A chill ran from the tailbone to the top of the head.
After an unknown amount of time, someone couldn't help but mutter.
"Who is this knight …"
"Could it be that the Sky Emperor has returned?!"
As the voice fell, the void became deathly silent again.
This thought was too terrifying and unimaginable, but it was reasonable.
Other than the Sky Emperor from a hundred thousand years ago, they really couldn't think of anyone else who could have such power. One spear and one step, killing the ancient Corpse Emperor in two moves.
The divine knight was covered in armor and even wore a sinister bronze mask on his face.
He looked down at everyone from the back of the ancient beast. After seeing Chen Muxi, his eyes that were like ten thousand year old rocks suddenly became gentle. At the same time, a hoarse and heavy voice came from under the mask.
"Greetings, Empress Concubine."
Chen Muxi nodded with a smile. She didn't know the specific identity of this knight, so she didn't know how to address him.
"You're not the Sky Emperor Chen Gou, who are you?"
Elder Xian Ling and Spirit Emperor of the Ruins of God keenly deduced the key information from the way the knight addressed Chen Muxi.
"Of course not, I'm just a divine general who accompanied the Sky Emperor to battle the heavens." The heavy armored knight turned around and became one with the horse, walking unhurriedly towards the two ancient emperors.
Elder Xian and the soul were shocked. They were on full alert as they said, "We didn't offend the Empress Concubine, we can retreat now and avoid the Jade Lake branch from now on!"
They thought they were different from the Corpse Emperor. Ever since they descended, they actually didn't attack and only said a few words.
Moreover, the words they said to Chen Muxi were just calm advice. Although there was a hint of threat, it wasn't too much.
They weren't like the Corpse Emperor, who directly wanted the son to pay for his father's debt. If he brought Chen Muxi to the underworld, who would die if not him?
However, the heavy armored divine knight was unmoved. He shook his head and said, "It's too late, you've already committed a capital crime."
"May I ask what crime we've committed?" Elder Xian and Spirit Emperor asked in confusion and unwillingness.
"Directly calling the Sky Emperor by his name is unforgivable!"
Before he finished speaking, the heavy armored divine knight grabbed the spear from the ground and suddenly exploded. One man and one horse surged out like a black flood.
Puchi!
Blood light flashed. The black divine spear in his hand was like a true dragon. Borrowing the unparalleled charge of the ancient beast, it instantly broke through all obstacles and stabbed into the body of the Spirit Emperor, piercing through him.
"How can this be?"
The Spirit Emperor was scared out of his wits. Only when he was facing the heavy armored divine knight did he truly feel how powerless and terrified the Corpse Emperor was at that moment.
This mysterious divine knight that came out of nowhere was actually only at the Divine King Realm, but he could easily suppress and even kill all of them ancient emperors.
This meant that the divine knight's Theurgy, Dao Soldier, and Battle Physique were all far above them!
"Go!"
Elder Xian was terrified. She didn't dare to stay any longer. She tapped her feet and was about to turn around and leave through the void.
Although the Spirit Emperor was injured, he was faster than Elder Xian in the face of life and death.
He didn't even turn around and directly retreated. As he forcibly separated himself from the spear, he opened a void door behind him and was about to retreat.
"Where are you escaping to? Aren't you under the heavens?"
The heavy armored divine knight said coldly. He didn't care about the heavily injured Spirit Emperor and calmly chased after Elder Xian.
Soon, the black armored divine knight and the two ancient emperors disappeared.
In front of the forbidden underground palace, there was only the Corpse Emperor who had died a miserable death and the ground was covered in blood.
Chen Muxi wasn't stained by any dust or blood. She was like a snow white holy lotus that bloomed in hell, beautiful and noble.
But no one was relaxed. Because unknowingly, an even greater pressure suddenly descended and enveloped the land.
Completely opposite to the divine knight's reserved aura, this aura was released to the extreme and covered the sky and earth.
"After countless years, I finally found the way back to the Heavens Immortal World …"
A Celestial Phoenix spread its wings and tore through the sky. Its eyes were filled with arrogance and disdain.
"Immortal Heavenly Emperor!"
"He's not dead, and his aura is at its peak …"
The whole world was shocked. This heavenly emperor who ended the Mythological Era and started the Primeval Era was the first ancient emperor in the world.
His fame in ancient history was only second to the Venerable Emperor who started the Mythological Era.
It had been millions of years since his era. No one expected that not only was he not dead, but he was also still at his peak and even stronger than before.
Everyone in the Jade Pool was shocked and worried for Chen Muxi.
The Immortal Heavenly Emperor wasn't someone the Corpse Emperor or the Spirit Emperor could compare to. In fact, even supreme beings like the Longevity Heavenly Venerable couldn't compare to him.
Among all the supreme beings that had been born since ancient times, his strength was firmly in the top five!
Suddenly, another dignified voice traveled over.
"You can't leave, and you can't stay. Eternal silence is your final destination."
Boom!
In the distance, a monstrous wave swept through the surroundings, startling the dormant supreme beings of the Primeval Era and causing them to tremble.
This aura reminded them of a repressed era and a terrifying name.
"Great Emperor!"
Outside the forbidden area, the large black dog couldn't help but shout. Tears flowed down his face, and he couldn't control it anymore.
That was a majestic figure, heroic and intimidating. His dark hair was thick, and his eyes were filled with wisdom that could see through everything. Every movement he made caused the Daos of heaven and earth to tremble and wail. His elegance was unparalleled.
"At the end of the Immortal Path, who is the peak? When one sees no beginning, the Dao becomes empty!"
This saying had been passed down for who knew how many tens of thousands of years. Now that the people of this world had finally seen the real person, they felt that it wasn't exaggerated at all.
For so many years, he had always been in confrontation with the Immortal Heavenly Emperor on the Path of Celestial Ascension.
Now, the Immortal Heavenly Emperor discovered that the Path of Celestial Ascension was different. The nine dragons pulling the coffin was the secret of the High Heavens Realm. He wanted to compete for the ferry, and the Without Beginning followed closely behind.
"Without Beginning, do you really think that I'm afraid of you?"
A heroic figure suddenly appeared on the back of the five-colored Divine Phoenix. It looked like a young man.
As he finished speaking, the man floated in mid-air, and the Divine Phoenix beneath his feet suddenly turned into a streak of celestial light and rushed toward him. In the end, they merged into one amidst the extremely dazzling holy light.
When the light dissipated, the Divine Phoenix and the man had both disappeared. In their place was a figure with celestial wings on his back and divine claws on his hands. Clanging sounds rang out as if he was both a god and a devil.
"The Celestial Divine Battle Physique of the High Heavens?!"
Chen Muxi exclaimed in surprise. It seemed like this was the first time she had lost her composure since she appeared.
Although she had never been to the High Heavens Realm, and Chen Gou had never returned, they could occasionally communicate through their bloodline connection.
Therefore, she knew many secrets of the High Heavens Realm, including the Immortal Divine Battle Physique unique to the High Heavens.
She did not expect that the Immortal Heavenly Emperor, who had always appeared in the form of a Phoenix, was actually a Dao Spirit. The real Heavenly Emperor was someone else.
It seemed like the legend of the Immortal Heavenly Emperor being from the Celestial World and accidentally being stranded in the Lower Realm when he was young was true.
More importantly, now that the Immortal Heavenly Emperor had merged with his body and soul, and activated the Supreme Immortal Body, his strength had increased exponentially. Could the Without Beginning Emperor defeat him?
Clang!
The Purple Mountain Bell rang, shaking the heavens and the earth.
The Without Beginning waved his hand, and the Bell of Without Beginning, which had been silent for a long time, flew out from the Purple Mountain. It broke through the void and flew into his hand in an instant.
At this moment, there was nothing more to say. There was only a battle.
With a loud bang, the two figures collided.
The Immortal Heavenly Emperor's Immortal Phoenix Battle Physique and divine wings slashed diagonally, and the Without Beginning Emperor's palm landed. The stars moved, and the heaven and earth reversed.
The two fiercely clashed. Divine light and immortal splendor swept up to three hundred thousand feet, as if the sky and earth were being split apart.
The intensity of the battle was beyond imagination. This was an earth-shattering battle between the most powerful Supremes.
Just as the battle was reaching its climax, the heavy-armored divine rider returned.
He sat on the back of the ancient beast with his back straight. Two human heads hung on the spear in his right hand. They really belonged to Senior Immortal and Spirit Empress.
"The Netherworld Phoenix Tribe has been wiped out in High Heavens. I didn't expect there to be fish that escaped the net here."
He calmly stared at the Immortal Heavenly Emperor as if he was looking at a dead man.
The Immortal Heavenly Emperor's eyes turned serious. He didn't expect the Divine General to return so quickly. He also didn't expect the Without Beginning to hide his strength so deeply.
His own dao spirit merged with his body and activated the Immortal God Battle Physique. How could his strength only multiply?
However, the Without Beginning could still fight him as an equal and didn't seem to be at a disadvantage. This ruined his plan to end the battle quickly.
Now that the Divine General had returned and teamed up with the Without Beginning, his defeat was almost certain!
"You guys, very good."
"My plan was not in vain. The dao fruits of the three of you are equivalent to a hundred Supremes."
Suddenly, a mysterious aura appeared. It devoured all things. The entire sky and heaven and earth slowly turned into a cauldron that wanted to refine everyone.
"Di Zun, you really didn't die!" The Without Beginning Emperor's eyes were like lightning. His expression didn't change.
As soon as this was said, the world shook. Everyone was in an uproar.
What was going on with this world?
Not only was the Immortal Heavenly Emperor not dead, but even the Di Zun was still alive!
"It's me. I looked down on the world and refined the sky into a cauldron. This world has become my cauldron. You guys will be refined by me to help my Extreme Dao sublimate and enter the Celestial World."
The Di Zun's dignified voice sounded. He admitted that he was going to refine everyone's dao fruits to nourish himself.
"Shameless boasting!"
The heavy-armored divine knight laughed as if he was watching a joke.
"After you die, I will kill my way into High Heavens and send your master to see you." The Di Zun's voice was extremely cold and arrogant.
The heavy-armored divine knight didn't say anything else. He didn't attack either. Instead, he looked up at the sky.
Boom!
There was a loud sound and the sky shook.
"There's no need for you to go. I'll find you."
A dignified and mocking voice was heard. The dormant Supreme Martial Artists' pupils shrank. They felt that the barrier between the Celestial World and this world seemed to have been opened.
Then, two palms broke through layers of space barriers and descended from High Heavens to the human world. They flew across the sky and slapped toward the Jade Lake's forbidden area.
The palms weren't ferocious. They were gentle like white jade, but powerful and unpredictable.
As the palms descended, a towering divine power enveloped the Big Dipper. People felt that there was no sun or sky above their heads. Only the two palms were left in their sight.
People couldn't help but think of a phrase …
One Hand to Cover the Sky!
Pfft!
Pfft!
In the Jade Lake's forbidden area, two people spat out blood at the same time. Two white jade palms slapped the Immortal Heavenly Emperor and the Di Zun.
The former's Deity Phoenix Battle Form suddenly disintegrated. Then, the Dao Spirit Phoenix exploded, turning into a sky full of light rain.
The Immortal Heavenly Emperor's body was also suppressed. He coughed up blood and all the bones in his body were broken.
The Di Zun wasn't much better. He was smashed thousands of meters into the ground. His aura was extremely weak as if he was buried.
In the blink of an eye, the Sky Covering Era's strongest Celestial Master and Ancient Emperor were suppressed so easily. They almost died on the spot.
The ancient Supreme Martial Artists in the Origin Ancient Mine, the Reincarnation Sea, the Burial Island, and other forbidden areas were scared out of their wits. They couldn't believe it.
"Who is it? He suppressed the Di Zun and the Immortal Heavenly Emperor so easily. He only used one hand and they couldn't even raise their heads!"
The world was in an uproar. The two palms under the sky shocked the past, present, and future.
Everyone knew that the dust had settled. Everything was coming to an end.
No one was a match for the two palms. No one could go against their will.
In the end, nothing unexpected happened.
The Immortal Heavenly Emperor and the Di Zun were killed mercilessly. Their souls were destroyed and they were buried in the forbidden area.
"It's the Firmament Emperor. He attacked from the Celestial World across time and space, but he's still invincible in the starry sky."
The answer was obvious. It was shocking and regrettable.
It was a pity that the Firmament Emperor, who was thought to have the strongest body, didn't return. The people of this world didn't have the chance to see his true appearance.
Under the protection of the heavy-armored divine cavalry and the Emperor Without Beginning, no one dared to covet the sacred object in the forbidden area.
Chen Muxi entered the underground palace leisurely and took away the Divine Embryo. She used the Divine Medicine to save the Great Success Divine Physique, who was sealed in the Source of God.
He was very happy to see the Without Beginning. The father and son could reunite in such a way. Life was almost perfect, but he couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.
"It's a pity that your mother isn't here anymore. If she saw your achievements today, she would be happier than me." The Great Success Divine Physique thought of Emperor Xi and felt lost.
"Who said she isn't here anymore?"
Chen Muxi's eyes were bright like stars. She smiled and said, "She's already the Queen Mother of the Celestial Court, the mother of the Three Realms. She's in the Heaven Realm now. We can meet at any time."
This was a great secret that involved all the worlds!
Emperor Xi of the Shrouding Sky World was originally a mirror clone created by the Queen Mother of the Heaven Realm in order to advance to the Celestial Emperor Realm. It was similar to Haotian's clone.
Under normal circumstances, when a clone cultivated to the Godking realm, its dao fruit would eventually return to the main body and be devoured.
However, Chen Gou controlled the Mortal World from the Heavens, mobilized the hidden forces of the Jie Sect and the Zhurong Royal Family, and set up a thousand-year plan. In the end, he succeeded in helping the West Emperor turn the tables and replace the original Queen Mother.
Now that she controlled half of the Heavenly Court, this was also the reason why Chen Muxi was conferred the title of the Heavenly Court's Jade Pool Princess.
Haotian was not unaware of this. However, in recent years, Chen Gou, Sect Leader Tongtian, Emperor Yan, and Emperor Jun had gradually reversed the situation and gained the upper hand in the battle of Emperor Shang Cang.
This change affected the structure of the Mountain and Sea God Realm, and caused the Jie Sect to rise again.
The Heavenly Court was originally a subsidiary of the Heavenly Realm. Therefore, even though Haotian, who had always been kind and tolerant, had noticed something, he pretended not to know and lived in peace.
"Celestial Emperor said that the realm gate will open in a year. I'll go to the Underworld to see my old friends first. Empress Concubine, you must arrange everything during this time."
After saying this to Chen Muxi, the heavy-armored knight spurred his horse and left. He crossed time and space and went directly to the real Netherworld.
He was originally one of the Soul Reapers of the Hades Temple in the Netherworld. He was the Martial Mourning Heavenly King, Ran Min!
Later, by chance, he became one of the few cultivators from the Lower Realm who accidentally entered High Heavens. After that, he had been fighting with a few Celestial Emperors in High Heavens. He had outstanding battle achievements, and his ferocious reputation could make the Divine King change his expression from 100,000 miles away.
…
A year later, the starry sky outside the Big Dipper Heaven in the world that covered the sky was filled with immortal light. Golden lotuses formed a divine bridge that pierced through the stars and extended to the distant High Heavens.
The nine dragons pulling the coffin appeared again!
However, what they pulled was no longer an ancient bronze coffin, but an immortal island.
That was the former Flower Island. After more than a thousand years of transformation, the former island had completely become a treasure that could fly on its own, and even travel through the void.
The Sacred Flower Island was vast and boundless, like a continent.
It was covered with spell formations and battle fortresses. In the sky and on the ground, the Tiger Flood Lightning God Cavalry, the Eight Desolaces Fire Dragon Cavalry, the Ancient Metal Devouring Lightning Cavalry, and the other Divine Guards, all clad in Lightning God Battle Armor, patrolled the area meticulously.
Dong Li, Xin Qi, Nuo Dun, Wang Teng, Fat Head, Edward Park, Ye Qing, Han Feng, and other close friends of Chen Gou had all become the commanders of the divine guards.
In the center of the immortal island, there was an endless number of pavilions and terraces. One of the pavilions occupied a vast area and was very eye-catching.
There were not only Ning Que, Sangsang, Li Manman, Yu Lian, but also Zhang Xiao Fan, BiYao, Lu XueQi …
However, the most eye-catching things on the entire island were the Immortal Palaces.
Every Immortal Palace had a female palace master.
Xu Wanniang, Bai Suzhen, the female king, Chen Muxi, the Queen Mother, Ye Hongyu, Bai Youyou … At this moment, all of them looked deeply at the end of the Bridge of Immortality.
Some of them had smiles on their faces, while others had tears streaming down their cheeks. However, all of them were filled with anticipation and gentleness.
"Sigh, how vexing." Within Mu Xi's Immortal Palace, Chen Muxi suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong? You're about to meet the Emperor, and you're still unhappy?" Her maidservants and followers asked in confusion.
"Once I enter the Heavens, people will only care that I'm the daughter of the Celestial Emperor. They won't care about how hard I work. I clearly want to fight for myself and have my own story."
Chen Muxi sighed helplessly. "I really don't want to be the daughter of the Celestial Emperor."
"…"
